Spring Cleaning and Organizing

Three Tips to Organizing Your Life this Spring

As you start to claim your life back from winter’s long, deep freeze, consider these few tips to help you clean up, organize, and enjoy the coming season.

Decide What Needs to Stay

There are probably areas of chaos and clutter in your home or garage that you feel stuck with. It's not anything you can get rid of or store somewhere else because you need to access it somewhat often.

Before you decide how you’re going to make the items you’re holding onto more organized and accessible while also getting them out of the way, you first must make things a little easier on yourself by taking a couple extra steps.

Decide What Needs to Go

As obvious as it sounds, consider that the most difficult part of storage and organization is the moment when you actually decide what exactly you'er able to get rid of. There are entire reality shows dedicated to following people who are trying to simplify and declutter. Perhaps watch some of those shows. Perhaps do an inventory of what you currently have that you haven’t used in ages.

Whatever steps you take, the smaller you can make your pile of stuff to organize, the simpler you can make your process.

Decide What Can Move

One of the best ways to add square feet to your home or garage is with a storage space. Storage gives you access without overwhelming your space. Many people simply need to come to a point where they realize they have outgrown their garage or crawlspace. At that point, storage becomes a quick, easy way to resolve clutter.

Following these steps of deciding, decluttering, and designating your clutter or chaos can go a long way to help you enjoy your spring and summer.

Happy organizing!
